Vitality is offering all new members a free Amazon Echo Dot when they take out a Vitality Health Plan or Vitality Life Insurance. If you want the chance to get one of the best smart speakers on the market, you can get one with your life insurance. Vitality has released Vitality Alexa Skill, in conjunction with Amazon giving customers access to healthy recipes and workouts.

Benefits with Vitality

Vitality offers a wide range of benefits when you take out a policy with them and their new offer is available until 30th June, so you have plenty of time to take advantage of it.

Their newest offer gives new customers the chance to get their hands on an Amazon Echo Dot for £0. Amazon Echo is a hands-free, voice-controlled device and speaker. It can connect to your headphones, speakers and compatible smart home devices within your house.

Vitality Alexa Skill

Vitality has linked up with Amazon to create its own app for use on Amazon Echo Dot and other devices. With Vitality Skill, you can ask Alexa for anything related to healthy eating, workouts and wellbeing tips that can help you get healthier and get discounts off your premiums.

With Vitality Alexa Skill, you can ask Vitality for a workout, recipe or healthy living tip to get some inspiration for a healthy week. You can access it through both the Amazon Alexa App by searching for Vitality and enabling ‘Skill’. What’s more, you’ll have access to all other Amazon Echo Dot services with your freebie!

How do I get an Amazon Echo Dot?

In order to obtain a free Amazon Echo Dot, you’ll need to take out either a Vitality Personal Healthcare Plan or a Vitality Life Insurance Plan with indexation with the Wellness Optimiser, Vitality Optimiser, Interest Rate Optimiser or Premium Rate Optimiser for an additional fee.

The offer is for new customers only and lasts until June 30th 2018.

Vitality Personal Healthcare

Vitality’s private health insurance helps to give you and your family peace of mind when you get ill. It can help beat NHS waiting times and provide the right level of care and support for you and your family. Vitality has a comprehensive core cover that covers GP services, consultant referrals, private prescriptions and many more.

Vitality Life Insurance

With Vitality, you can get an award-winning life insurance plan to help protect your family to make their life financially easier in the event of your death. A protection plan can be used to protect your family, home, income or business. Vitality, whilst not always the cheapest option, is known for providing comprehensive cover in the market and provides their customers with a range of benefits they can use during the policy term.

Vitality offers a range of life insurance including whole life cover, term life insurance, key man insurance and shareholder protection that can help protect you, your family and your business.

What is indexation?

When indexation is added to your policy, it means the cover increases each year in line with the Retail Prices Index. This is to offset against inflation which would normally reduce the value of your cover over time. It basically means that at the point of claim, the amount paid out has the same value as it would today.

Vitality makes their indexation policies more affordable with an upfront discount and flexibility within the policy. When combined with Wellness Optimiser or Vitality Optimiser, you can actually offset the costs of some of the indexation by saving money.

Optimiser rates and what’s involved

Once you’ve chosen your life insurance plan, you then have the option to optimise it. With Vitality Optimiser, customers can get up to 40% premium discounts on certain policies. In addition to this, you’ll get opportunities to decrease the cost of premiums based on your health and activity. Vitality offers a range of discounts and rewards through various partners such as Starbucks, David Lloyd, Apple and many more if you opt for Vitality Plus too.

As a Vitality health partner, customers have access to a wider range of discounts and rewards. In addition to this, a health points system helps you stay active and healthy. This is why it works great with the Vitality Alexa Skill. By combining the two, you’ll have more opportunity to get your discounts!

Vitality’s offer – what you need to know

The offer for a free Amazon Echo Dot started in March and is running up until 30th June. Your policy needs to be taken out before this date and activated by 31st July at the latest. You’ll need to take out either a Vitality Health Plan or a Vitality Life Plan.

How does it work

About a week after you’ve taken out your policy, you’ll be sent an online health review you’ll need to complete. When this is completed, and the first payment has been taken, you’ll receive an email from Vitality. This email contains a promotional code to redeem your Amazon Echo Dot with information about the new Vitality Alexa Skill.

Once you’ve received your code, you can log on to Amazon and redeem your Echo dot.

What’s more, you won’t need to pay standard delivery fees either unless you apply for express delivery. You should receive your Amazon Echo Dot within 3-5 working days from your order date. In total about 4-8 weeks after your policy is taken out. This will depend on how soon you fill out the health review and when your first payment comes out.

What models can you get?

With the Vitality Plans, you can get the Amazon Echo Dot 2nd generation model in either black or white. It normally costs around £49.99. All promotional codes last until 30th September. So, don’t forget to redeem your new Amazon Echo Dot.
